Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Like a lot of movies, Astro Boy has been designed to function on different levels and serve different audiences, but in this case these multiple meanings and points of address have created a confusion of tone.
Rotten: There's very little that the filmmakers haven't borrowed here, making Astro Boy feel as copied as its title character.
Fresh: Awesome. Truly.
Fresh: While the film retains some of the DNA of the original TV series, it bears more similarity to such recent fare as Wall-E and Transformers.
Customer Reviews
This is a big kid movie too.
Verry good movie! I have been watting for this one to come out. Good for young and old. Buy it you will need to watch it more than once to get all of the background info from it. Just so you understand ck out the color of the boot jets. This might just be one of thows movies that the kids will need to be played over and over untell it drives the parents nuts. (FYI I am 32 and I love this movie)
Awesome.
I remember my dad and me watching the TV series when I was 6 and older, and it brings back so many fun childhood memories. :)
